this came after the fbi was able to read 10,000 e-mails between several u.s. generals and their lady friends without any warrant or even evidence of a crime. leahy said he'd put a stop to that. then under pressure from law enforcement leahy not only dropped the idea, he wrote a bill that would make easier. then twitter users got upset for that reversal. this morning, the senator said, you know what, never mind. >> ah, guess that's a politician's prerogative. >> 180/180/180. you do the math. >> the ultimate flip-flop. all right, scott, thank you very much. time to check that forecast with meteorologist loren. >> a stark contrast from yesterday. we had quite a bit of rainfall yesterday, overnight. this morning, a few light showers, mostly concentrated in the south bay. this is a very big travel day. people coming into town, headed out of town.

and the front is headed out of town. it's not even going to impact california. as we head throughout the remainder of the day. it's moving, just racing into the four corners region. for us, this is all that's left over. want to zoom in, show you that last batch of rain located over the santa cruz mountains. 59 degrees in san francisco. good morning to you. 57 in san jose. it's going to be a comfortable day because we're starting out so mild. winds are expected to pick up later today. keep that in mind. we stop the clock at 8:00 a.m. still getting shower activity mostly on the western facing slopes. that's going to clear out quickly by noon. just a couple of spotty areas left over. by 2:00 p.m., the sun is shining over the greater bay area. as we wake up on thanksgiving morning, temperatures are going to be nice and comfortable. and we're talking about complete sunshine right off the bat with

off shore flow. really something to be thankful for in the weather department. 65 degrees in livermore today. temperatures are going to be in the 60s. showers really cominge ining toe at about 10:00 a.m. for the greater bay area. as we head throughout friday, 69 degrees for black friday deals. it's going to be perfect out there as you're shopping. you're not going to have to race indoors. because of the showers. 71 degrees on saturday. comfortable conditions will persist all the way through the beginning of next week. so we're done with the rain for a while. let's check on your drive with mike. >> we have a lot of folks right here. commuting to work. as i look really closely at the cameras. i cannot see as many windshield wipers as they have in the last 20 minutes. things are calming down. but the map shows you. the green shows you the wet conditions. that would be an issue as far as the slick conditions on the

roads. also, north 101 jams up from 680 that we just showed you up to oakland road where there's an accident moving on the shoulder. two or three cars may be involved so slows it coming into san jose. north 101 approaching 880, also slow it westbound 237, an accident just past lawrence expressway. this portion, we often hear about flooded local road, so keep track of it. so far, 237, that's okay. in the east bay, a slower drive. still eastbound an you pass through the earlier sig alert zone. but much improved. westbound, there's your commute. freemont, 880 itself, as you come down past the park sign, soupy conditions and the water kicking up making the blurry shot here. it's going to be issue for your visibility as well. the bay bridge shows the leftovers from the rain.

talking thanksgiving and we got christmas out there. 6:30. good morning, everybody, i'm jon kelley. >> i'm laura garcia-cannon. this morning, palo alto's hp hoping to bounce back from the brink after a disastrous day on wall street. yesterday, hp publicly accused the company autonomy of lying about its performance before hp bought it for more than $11 billion. we're joined by business and tech reporter scott mcgrew. hp stocks just started trading. >> just a couple seconds ago. it's down already 11 cents. it was down 12% yesterday. down about 1% this morning. also new this morning, the fbi is getting involved. this, according to bloomberg. this will be the second agency involved. yesterday, ceo meg whitman told nbc she has asked the sec to

investigate after hp says it discovered deliberate accounting irregularities in its purchase of that british company autonomy. deliberate accounting irregularities -- that's a po lo polite way of saying they being couped the books. cooked the books. whitman was not ceo of the time of the deal, she was on the board, and in most cases, $8 billion goof would probably lead to resignations. but resignations and firings at hp are so common you could probably argue that's probably the last thing the company needs now. the company down about 1% in the first minute of trading. we're also watching that weather. as holiday travel gets under way. we have a live look for you at san jose. also oakland and san francisco. where airline passengers are already heading out, trying to catch those flights.

of course, this is the busiest travel day of the year. as we give you a live look at fso where people are starting to go to catch flights. please enjoy and please be safe out there. we have a team in place to help you before you head out the door. bob riddle and mike are watching the roads. christina loren is watching the forecast. >> good morning to you at home. if you are traveling today, as millions of people will be, you just want to be advised, there's still wet conditions across the bay area. showers in the south bay. along 17, watch out for slick conditions there. you're going to find wet roadways. trying to get into southern california though isn't going to be a big issue because the rain system's moving to the northwest. it's going to take the rain with

it. low pressure as it moves into the four corners region. weather conditions improving. we will be left with downright sinful weather as we head throughout your thanksgiving day. some of the best condition, across the entire nation right here in the bay area. stay tuned for that forecast. first, let's check on your drive. 6:33 on a wednesday. >> prethanksgiving wednesday. we expect a lighter volume. overall, that's what we see. at 680, it's jammed up. even though the rain has stopped, we see less windshield wipers. oakland road, there was an original accident involved two or three cars. another one reported in the approaching lane so that will cause additional slowing. the green means there may be significant roadway moisture. meaning slick roadways through the area. an accident right around the 101

interchange. we're going to look at oakland as we travel further north. we see slowing in the northbound direction. also, the blur. because there's moisture in the air. water kicking up after the rain has passed through. a big concern, especially off ramps with highway speed. now, we showed you the backup at the toll plaza earlier. that's been kicked off because of all these lights. it goes back to about west grand avenue now. if you're heading out of the area, there are no chain requires, but we're saying bring them anyway because you never know. we're talking about people heading out for the holiday season. our own bob riddle is also out there. a lot of folks hitting the roadways. what do you have as far as their concerns? >> well, we're going to see more people this year. good morning to you, as we head through san jose. this is before thanksgiving.

aaa is predicting more on the roads. almost 5.5 million californians will travel 50 miles or more for this holiday weekend. that's about half a percent of an increase over last year. the majority traveling by car. gas prices have certainly come down enough to make it more affordable to do so. not as expensive as it was a month ago. the latest overnight numbers from aaa. an average gallon of gas, oakland in the 370 range. san francisco, mid380s. you compare that to just 30 days ago. you're looking at a drop of 70 cents. so substantially down. you compare those numbers to last thanksgiving. roughly about the same. you're going to be paying around $3.70 for a gallon if you're heading out. it is raining out here, at least in the south bay. as meteorologist christina loren

has been saying, this rain is supposed to let up later in the morning. maybe around 10:00, 11:00 hour. reporting live, bob rydell, today in the bay. it is 6:36. still ahead, we'll let you know what you need to know as you head up and pack up that bag. this is the busiest travel day of the year. all morning long, we've been covering your holiday travel. right now, let's take a look at la guardia airport in new york city. >> reporter: moogood morning. there are actually fewer people traveling by air compared to last year but, you know what, here in the new york city area, we're seeing the opposite. as i get out of the way, you can take a look at further down the hallway, after the security checkpoint, lines are long. they actually stretch down the hallway. if you are flying here, definitely expect company at the baggage claim, while getting in

a taxi or even using our mass transit. officials expect 1.5 million passenger s to fly through the major airports here. the bridges and tunnels will most likely come with delays. especially since most morns are driving to their holiday destination this year. if you find yourself in manhattan, there will be crowded streets, detours today and tomorrow. in certain areas of the city. that all comes along with the macy's thanksgiving day parade. another good thing to keep in mind, if you have family coming into this area and they need a car, call ahead. a lot of rental places don't have any. that's because a lot people lost their cars during sandy so good idea to plan for that.

welcome back. busy travel day. showers clearing out just in time for you to hit the highway safely. as i widen out, show you the entire bay area. you can see, not a whole lot of rain leftover. what is left over is sizzlie f quickly. back to you guys. san jose police on the scene of a hit and run. hit while walking in the intersection of jackson and story in east san jose. there is a closure in place at that intersection. we're now finding out that vta

not involved in the crash but has rerouted a bus line, bus line 70. there is no word on the pedestri pedestrian's condition or how long the intersection will be closed. coming up, first, attacks by air, and now attacks on the ground in israel. the bus explosion that could escalate the tension and violence along gaza strip. we'll have that and more just ahead. hewlett-packard stock this close to turning to the positive. we'll have the latest on the financial debacle.

this morning, we are watching the weather. we take a live look at oakland

this morning. a city that will see plenty of holiday travel at its airports today. also, a live look at the bay bridge, san jose, san francisco and the golden gate bridge. people taking to the skies and the roads on this day before thanksgiving. today, of course, one of the busiest travel days of the year. check out the packed security lines this morning. in this new video, a shot at the miami international airport. we have a team in place with what you need to know before you head out that front door. mike is watching the roads. meteorologist christina loren. and we begin at the airport where some flyers have been sleeping over to catch morning flights. >> reporter: sleeping, whatever they have to do, until those security gates opened at 4:30 this morning. we're starting to see bumper to bumper traffic as people are dropping people off at the curb. once you get inside, you

understand why some people arrived three hours early. one man stopped in his tracks when he saw it. this is the busy terminal, early in the morning, with several flights heading out. this holiday season, fso is expecting a record passenger load of 3% from this time last year. from last friday through sunday. i just spoke with a man who was trying to go to southern california who thought his early departure would beat all this. where you going? do you expect this line? >> going to los angeles. i wasn't expecting this at all. >> reporter: what do you think? >> it's ridiculous. i can't -- i know. it's outrageous. >> reporter: the duty manager i spoke with this morning said so far so good with keeping on time despite all the rain that has been happening all morning.

still raining here now. the faa website they rely on is still down but they're anticipating they might have some delays sometime after 8:00 this morning. they should have better information after 7:00. reporting live at fso, christy smith, "today in the bay." >> watching all those lines out there in the rain, i'm glad we're inside, safe and dry. >> we'll be here to help you stuff that turkey till about 7:00 a.m. we've got the parade happening. the mass macy's thanksgiving da parade right here on nbc bay area. i think they're going to run it twice so if you miss it the first time, you'll have another opportunity. what's happening as these showers move out and high pressure starts to move in, all that moisture getting compressed to the surface. we have fog expecting flight delays. as i wide be out an out and sto

clock, you can see the activity lingering around the south bay. that's when the sun starts to break through the clouds. by noon today, just a little bit of spotty activity. as we head throughout the second half of the day, then we wake up thanksgiving morning, 5:00 a.m., full sunshine. beautiful conditions over the greater bay area to start tomorrow just after sunshine. so, if you will be out and about for black friday shopping, that starts on thursday, at 8:00 p.m., walmart, sears, kmart, toys "r" us. target, 59 degrees. if you're heading out and about to cash in on deals. if you're going to hold off until friday morning, temperatures are still not going to be as bad. a little chilly up in the north bay but not too bad. a lot of tree lighting happening as we head through friday night. i have been the honored hostess.

i get to do the gihradeli square tree. a north wind, it's going to feel a little bit more like the 50s. make sure you bring coats. santa, i understand, will be making an appearance. taking a break from his busy schedule. 65 degrees in livermore. temperatures not too bad considering we had a storm system roll through. 63 in san jose. 65 degrees in los garos. if you wanted to get any traveling done, heading over to grandma's house should be easy. sunny conditions. a warm-up on the way through saturday. 67, bay side. 66 at the coast. you can hit the beach this weekend. 6:48. let's look at your drive with mike. >> a quick look outside. murky conditions over here. the southbound shows you a great deal of headlights now. not a lot of slowing. we'll get a look at the map.

we'll also see how things are shaping up into the city. a smooth drive over the bay bridge from the toll plaza. you have mild flooding reported at some on and off ramps. for most of the rain through the area, that highlighted green, we saw earlier, that has cleared from the maps. bart reporting 10 to 15 minute delays out of daily city because of mechanical difficulties. 101, 85, especially 101 coming up from the toll lane to 880 and the airport. two accidents earlier here. that has caused slowing but they've moved out of the roadway. the wet conditions continue. down 680, we're showing a smooth drive. look at this, the rain lets up, a lot of moisture in the air. low clouds and some fog in spots reported. coming out of the hills, into freemont. might be a little concern for

visibility over the next hour or so. keep that in mind. we'll get a look at emeryville. a nice smooth drive. the pace still into the 50s as you head through berkeley. watch the off ramps. guys, back to you. >> all right, mike, thank you very much. as you get set to jump behind the wheel, we suggest you pack a little extra patience. maybe a lot of patience. that's because millions of people are planning to travel for the thanksgiving holiday and most of them will be out there driving.
